This is the second album by The Electric Prunes, released in August 1967, just six months after their first album came out. This one is much more the work of the band and is again a fuzz-heavy, psychedelic rock approach. Though they got to do more of their own compositions, gotta say that the strongest track on this is a Goffin-King creation, “I Happen to Love You,” which they sneer and stomp through in pre-punk rage. Overall the album is, like the first one, uneven but enjoyable for what it is, and I’ve had it since shortly after getting that first one, which was probably around 1979. It definitely came from the bins at Desertshore Records in Syracuse.
It’s got some fun tracks, a well-produced sound. Given the time frame, you can easily imagine The Monkees doing any of these songs as they flexed their independence... they’ve got that kind of feel.
